Wanderers Two Blues Banners - Honour the 2Blue Legacy
When a Wanderers Two Blues player hits a milestone, it deserves to be celebrated in style. FootyBanners.com crafts premium custom banners for the Two Blues that capture the pride and passion of one of Newcastle's most storied rugby clubs. Order a banner that's as tough and proud as the 2Blue tradition itself.
Simple to Order
Select from Single Player, Two Player, Team, or Grand Final banners. For player milestone banners, provide the player's name, surname, guernsey number, and milestone - for example, Jake Brown, #7, 100 Games. Banners are printed with permanent, waterproof inks on heavy-duty paper that can stand up to a blustery Hunter Valley afternoon without fading or running.
Two Players, One Banner
When two Two Blues legends hit the same milestone, our Two Player banner is the perfect way to celebrate both at once. Provide both players' names and guernsey numbers and we'll create a quality banner worthy of the occasion at No.2 Sportsground.
Team Banners for Group Celebrations
Got between 3 and 6 players reaching a milestone in the same round? Our Team Banner option lets everyone share in the spotlight. A top line reading "Wanderers Two Blues - Milestone Round" sets the tone perfectly, making it a day the whole club talks about long after the final whistle.
Wall Keepsake Banners
Available in Small, Medium, and Large, our Wall Keepsake Banners are printed on thick recyclable paper with waterproof inks and built to last for years. Hang them in the clubrooms, at home, or in the garage - every Two Blues supporter deserves a piece of history on their wall.
Grand Final Banners
When the Wanderers Two Blues make it to the big dance, make sure the entrance matches the moment. Our Grand Final banners come in 4.5m and 5.5m sizes, fully customised with your chosen top and bottom text. Get in touch for design advice to make it unforgettable.
About Wanderers Two Blues Rugby Club
Origins and Founding
The Wanderers Rugby Club was founded in 1924 and has been proudly representing Newcastle in the Hunter Rugby Union competition for over a century. Known as the Two Blues, Wanderers are recognised as the most decorated club in the Newcastle and Hunter Rugby Union competition. The club's first Australian representative was Charles "Tug" Morrissey, who earned a Wallaby cap in the 1920s. From its earliest years, Wanderers established a reputation for producing elite rugby talent, with players from the club's foundation era representing NSW and Australia throughout the 1920s and 1930s.
Club History
Over their 100-year history, Wanderers have won 15 Hunter Rugby Union Premier 1 premierships, with titles in 1945, 1949, 1955, 1956, 1960, 1963, 1964, 1965, 1975, 1981, 1993, 2001, 2005, 2009, and 2014, as recorded in the Hunter Rugby major premiers records. The women's program has added a further nine premierships. From 1925 to 2022, twenty Wanderers senior players have represented Australia at national level, including twelve full Wallabies and one player each in the Australian Under-19 and Under-21 teams. Notable alumni include Bill Gardner (Wallabies, 1950s), Terry Curley, and Ron Meadows, who famously played in Australia's 1957 win over the All Blacks. In the modern era, players such as Matt Brown and Nathan Croft progressed through Wanderers to NSW Country and representative honours.
Home Ground
Wanderers call No. 2 Sportsground home, located at the corner of Parry and Smith Streets in Newcastle West, NSW. The ground is one of the most iconic rugby venues in New South Wales and is also home to Hunter Rugby Union competitions. The facility features grandstand seating and serves as the hub of club rugby in the Hunter region. Wanderers players and supporters regard it as "The Fortress" - a home ground advantage the club defends with great pride throughout each season.
Community and Programs
Wanderers field men's Grade, Colts, and Women's teams, and have a thriving junior rugby program that feeds players through to the senior club. In 2020, Wanderers entered a sister club relationship with Western Sydney Two Blues Rugby, expanding the 2Blue network across New South Wales. The club also participates in community netball, basketball, and cricket competitions, making it a broad sporting community hub in the Newcastle area. The Wanderers model is built on developing local talent and retaining players across their careers.
Newcastle West, New South Wales

-
Logo Preservation: Position your slit to one side of the mascot or logo so your club’s emblem stays intact and can be retained afterwards for display.
